That reply was for CJ1. (summat went wrong there, sorry).
No worries, I agree anyway.
He probably has to be a bit mindful of what he might be walking into. His opening salvo was probably a prophylactic; maybe thought he was saying Hi to a lurking Douglas Murray post-interview ambush.
The kind of stuff that could be chucked at the unwary:

Heâs a mercenary junket journalist driven by avarice, apparently.

Seems he attracted the ire of an anti-Assad activist there.
It would be easy to end up on the defensive, as happened to Finkelstein.
The âscoring systemâ might be one slip and they all pile into him.
Bravo to him for walking into it all.
Hereâs an interesting off-topic bit. I have trouble remembering Douglas Murrayâs name, as itâs two common names and Iâve only known about him for a month or two.
But I just put in âDouglas Israelâ to duckduckgo and itâs first up.
Same for âmurray israelâ (except thatâs the bit I canât remember)
That doesnât happen in Yandex.
Well itâs not that interestingâŚ
